Make This Book Wild - Fiona Danks, Jo Schofield

**SHORTLISTED FOR THE WEEK JUNIOR CHILDREN'S ILLUSTRATED BOOK OF THE YEAR 2023** From the authors behind The Stick Book and many other outdoor adventure favourites, this interactive one-of-a-kind creative scrapbook offers children an outlet for creativity inspired by the wild world.    This truly unique book contains prompts for all kinds of creative activity based around the natural world around us, from drawing to writing to mixed-media collage.   Readers will be encouraged to draw on their creativity, to express themselves without fear of being judged, and to make their book really WILD!   They will need scissors, pens, paints, tape, glue and a magnifying glass, plus lots of wild materials and their wildest creativity, as this book becomes filled with keepsakes from their own outdoor adventures.   From finding the faces hidden in pictures of trees, to collecting ingredients for a spell to keep nature safe, to sticking the feathers back onto a mythical bird, these prompts and activities will provide hours and hours of entertainment as they take children on flights of fantasy through the natural world.   Readers can colour outside the lines, do the activities in any order and go at their own pace.   The mixture of art, creative writing, collecting, games, wildlife-watching and imaginative prompts will appeal to kids with all kinds of interests, and there are no rules!
